IBM should provide, IMO, a error free (or almost) way of transmitting dumps.
It seems to me that sending the dump as an Email Attachment as opposed to an FTP would solve this issue of having to monitor the FTP. There is an option to define the Attachment as EXTERNAL (ie: Not included in the Message itself so there is no need to spool it at the Sending and Receiving Ends). What happens is that the transmission of the Attachment is delayed until final delivery at which point an automatic FTP-Type session is performed to do the transfer. This transfer is done so that any transfer problems are handled by resume-download under the covers by the delivery daemon.
